Gypsum: A Community Built for Living, Working, and Outdoor Adventure

Situated west of Vail and Beaver Creek, Gypsum is a thriving town that blends rugged ranching heritage with modern convenience. As home to Eagle County Regional Airport, Gypsum serves as a key gateway to the Vail Valley, offering seamless access to both local and national destinations. The town’s name reflects its roots, originating from the gypsum mineral deposits that continue to shape its industrial landscape.

Gypsum is rich in recreational opportunities, featuring 18 parks spanning over 24 acres, a 57,000-square-foot recreation center, and a skate park for residents of all ages. Golf enthusiasts can enjoy the Gypsum Creek Golf Course, a 6,900-yard, 18-hole Pete Dye-designed course catering to all skill levels.

Outdoor adventure is an essential part of life in Gypsum, with 96 acres of open space offering opportunities for biking, fishing, and hot air ballooning. Nearby, Sylvan Lake State Park provides an idyllic setting for fishing, boating, hiking, and picnicking in the summer, while winter months bring ice fishing, snowmobiling, cross-country skiing, and snowshoeing.

Adding to its appeal, Gypsum is home to one of the Vail Valley’s only big-box retailers—Costco—providing both residents and visitors with convenient access to essential goods.

With its strong sense of community, modern amenities, and endless outdoor recreation, Gypsum offers the perfect balance of small-town charm and convenience, making it a desirable place to call home.
